| Description of the problem | Engine stalls after fueling tank. During acceleration out of gas station, car jerks as it seems the air/fuel ratio is messed up. Car stalls when sitting at light or within a couple miles from the station at idle speed. I've resorted to shifting neutral and revving engine higher to counteract the stall. One instance was knocking/attempting to stall shortly after pulling from gas station, then operated fine on highway, but when exiting the jeep stalled and lost all power to the system (power steering and brake booster). Waited a minute at light, then restarted and ran fine. Dealer informed me that there likely is a problem with the valve to the vapor canister and it sounds like there is liquid fuel getting in. He had a prompt answer for me, so it seems as if he's answered the question before with other owners. |
